Home 1:1 Dog & Puppy Training in King's Lynn

This is the way I train, not in the situation but for the situation.  Working on concepts that your dog struggles with such as confidence, self control, calmness, independence, flexibility, optimism and arousal.  How does this work?  Well if your dog is struggling walking on a loose lead, we ask ourselves, is it because they are pessimistic, frustrated, stressed, nervous, excited or fearful?  We then work on these concepts with your dog so that it enables them to deal with the situations that the find themselves in.  When we train we look at the bigger picture and ask ourselves what does a dog that walks nicely on a lead look like?  Calm, confident and focused, so we work on these concepts with your dog to boost their skills in these areas.

 As a Concept Trainer I look at solutions and not the problem, taking away the negative and replacing it with positive.  What do we want?  We can then work out how we can achieve this and break it down into the concepts that are needed.  Calmness is a great skill for most dogs. therefore if your dog is calm they are able to process and learn what you are teaching them.  

Concept training is not all about giving your dog food every time they do something you like!  We build up a bank of what your dog enjoys and use them to reinforce the good stuff.  Luka loves playing catch with toys so we incorporate this into our training plan.  It is all about having fun with your dog, building your relationship and gaining trust.  Remember that every dog is unique with their own needs and we must respect that and treat them as an individual.  Training is not a one size fits all.
